The Pilot Loses It
Apparently a pilot from American airline JetBlue lost it as is reported here.
What is interesting, is that The Times says, that a fully qualified pilot was travelling as a passenger.
This is in fact quite common and all those stories where the two pilots eat the same dodgy meal and a passenger then lands the plane are very unlikely. A survey some years ago, said that most flights had someone amongst the passengers, who could bring the plane safely down.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.

The most dangerous part of a flight say to Malaga, is the drives to and from the airport.
